About The Maltodextrin

Maltodextrin, also called water-soluble dextrin and enzymatic dextrin, is a monosaccharide polymer with a dextrose equivalent value (DE value) of less than 20%, composed of D-glucose units linked by α-1,4-glycosidic bonds. The chemical formula is (C₆H₁₀O₅)n1. Below are some detailed information about maltodextrin:

I. Nature.

1.Physical properties:

1.1 Powdered maltodextrin has good fluidity, colorless, no starch and other odors.

1.2 Not sweet or very slightly sweet, easily soluble in water and moderately viscous.

2. Chemical properties:

The main properties of maltodextrin are directly related to the DE value. The DE value not only indicates the degree of hydrolysis, but also is an important indicator for understanding the product properties.

The higher the degree of hydrolysis, the greater the solubility, sweetness, hygroscopicity, permeability, fermentability, browning reaction and freezing point depression of the product, and the worse the texture, viscosity, pigment stability and crystallization resistance.

II. Production technology.

There are three ways of processing maltodextrin: acid method, enzyme method and acid-enzyme combination method:

1. Acidic process products are prone to turbidity and condensation. The product has poor solubility, low transparency and difficult filtration. This method is generally no longer used in industrial production.

2. The enzymatic process product has good transparency, strong solubility and does not become turbid when stored at room temperature. This is currently the main application method.

3. The reducing sugar value of maltodextrin produced by enzymatic process is 5% to 20%, and the reducing sugar value of maltodextrin produced by enzymatic process is 15%.
